Hey guys,

As you can see my parents are going to buy me a Golf R32. Anyways, I dont know alot about these car and wondering whether any of you have?

Anyone driven one? Been in one? Draged one? Any comments or questions are welcome.

Cheers

OC

Rightio then.

Looks aside, they are hideously overpriced car - end of story.

Yes they are going to buy me a Golf R32, but I also have the Stagea, and yes I have bought parts for it. That will be used for a delivery car now. But thanks to all of you who think this thread is Bullsh*t. Why on earth would I make it up?

*COUGH* BULLSHITE

"R" = 'racing' (see integra type-r, HSV GTS-R, jag xj-R... want more?)

"32" = 3.2 V6...

I willl pardon the ignorance, but there are other cars apart from "Nissan Skyline".

Yes please give me more!

You are a fool.

You know damn well what I meant was that until the Golf R32, the only thing that would show up on a search for "R32" on the web would be an R32 Skyline.

Of all the letter and number combinations, they had to pick one that is identical to a Skyline?

I don't "know damn well" what you implied from your post. Because I didn't take the same view as to your 'implication' means that your post must be open to interpretation. On this basis, my previous post explaining clearly how the badge designation is determined, answers your question exactly.

My quip of 'ignorance' to other cars and 'want more' was directed to the greater Skyline community who can't see beyond nissans - no different to HSV / FPV / other manufacturer enthusiasts.

Your agressive reply has merely reinforced my assumptions of narrow mindedness.

What is wrong with you people? What is this mines_datsun thingy? My folks are buying me a Golf R32, just a congrats would do. You dont wanna give me any advice about them, dont post. I dont care about your accusations because I know they are not true, seriously give me a good reason why I would lie bout this?

Anyways, bout the Stagea, CSV Imports has got me one (mates from way back), should be landed here in about 3 monthes. It is going to be used as a delivery vehicle for my parents as I would not be able to drive it because it is turbo'd. However, they are registering under their business, so I will be able to do deliveries. Yes I have bought parts for the Stag, but what do you expect me to do? Tell them "no I dont want the Golf, dont buy it"...?

The golf r32 is a very nice little car, drives well. but I wouldn't go and line up wrxs or 200sx or similar japanese cars on the road. Once moving it drives brilliant, just pray to god it stay together if you're gonna drive it hard. One thing to remember japanese cars will handle a fair bit more of abuse than their euroupean counterpart.

So do you go to Grammar or SFX? thats where most of the rich kids go in newcastle lol (dont get cut i was unfortunate enough to be sent to grammar). Why have you parents decided to give you this car, cant wait to see it on the road if you do get it. they look great and i have only ever seen one blue one around the warners bay area.

One of my friends test drove a Golf R32 when he was going to get rid of his S15.

He said it was a nice comfy car, but not the most spirited drive. It was pretty cool to drive a lag-free 4WD vehicle, but it still understeers a fair amount and the handling is a little remote. Its undoubtedly quick, but not engaging.

Your parents should not be buying you cars...

Bothers me off about the "R32" name too.. they could have at least chosen something else, rather than another popular model number. Sure, the original probably wasn't ever common in europe, but that is besides the point.

It's like naming a hyundai or something a HSV - imagine how peev'ed people would be down here. Would be only pissing off 18 million aussies at max, but boy would they not be happy.

so the point in your post was....?

to seek praise and admiration from people, most of whom you would never have met and are never likely to meet?

well if that's the case - "congratulations OC i wish i was as lucky you and my parents bought me a golf R32. you are so cool"

that what you were after?

i'm sure its a nice car and you are excited about it but posting a thread like that you have to expect some negative replies

Why are you posting on a skyline forum about a Golf R32? Surely a VW forum would be better, especially if you want advice. I have seen many and fortunate enough to have a mate who works for Audi in the UK so have been in a couple. Yes they are quick but at the stage I went in them, they were new on the market so teething problems had not even emerged.

I would recommend you find a good VW forum to seek further information on the R32

Nope wasnt seeking admiration. Just a bit of advice. If you dont have any, dont post.

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
